Breast lift/augmentation

I'm definitely considering one or the other. I would prefer the lift because I cannot quite wrap my mind around having implants in my chest for the rest of my life without any adverse effects.

If you have had one or the other and are willing to share...please tell me what your experience what like including: How long after wls did you have it done?, Any regrets?, Did you lose any sensation after the surgery? and any other info you would like to include would be great! Thanks.

Howdy!!!  I had a breast lift - no implants done in May this year.  I was a 56L before WLS, a 42DDD or E before the lift and wear a 40D these days.... LOVE IT!!!!

The way my surgeon did my lift, I actually GAINED sensation back in my nip-nips.....WHOWEEE!!!!  hot diggity dawg!!!  who NEW them lil thangs could get big thangs goin like that???!!!!  Oh, ummm - I digress......

How long after WLS?  4 years
Regrets?  Nope


It did take some getting used to - I'd never seen my nips just looking straight down - had a Rockwell experience...... I always feel like..... my tits is waaattchhin me...... LOL!!!!!  Naw, seriously - the recovery was a little tricky, the incisions under my breasts got irritated and had a lil problem healing, but nothing major.  I was not sure I would like the shape without an implant, but like you, couldn't 'wrap' my head around the idea - now I am glad I did not have implants - love my bobbies just as they is!!! now...... not before tho.... LOL!!!! 

 

But what if you are down to a little of nothing.  42DD before WLS, now a sagging 38 B/C depending on the brand.  I mean pitiful looks like a balloon with a third of water in them,  I need some HELP quick up in this damn camp.  But the thought of implants is driving me crazy.  A lift probably would be a 36A.  WTH???

Welllll - can't say there's much choice if you're repping for the IBTC.....

My surgeon was concerned that I wouldn't have enough - he wanted me to defintely be a D, but I could have ended up a C - I told him that all my life I've been the big booby girl - time to live on the other side of the fence!!! LOL 

I ended up a D - and I'm good with that!  I can do strapless or bra less with no problem - they sit up just fine and I can do the wet tank top thing like nobody's bidness!!! heehehe - ok - TMI, I know.

Your surgeon will tell you what the possiblities are - just be reasonable and know what you really want.

I'm considering the same thing. the problem is with me is that after wls my boobies shrank and it was more fat than breast tissue. So I'm really considering augmentation. I know it seems weird to have this foreign thing inside me so it's something that I really have to research and talk to my doctor about. I'll be a year out on Jan. 21 and I see my doc then so I'll see what he recommends...
